Bard mass(charm or otherwise) kiting didn't exist for the vast majority of EQ's "classic" existence since the PC hardware processing burps and server/internet burps would often lead to instant death. even multiple kiting by a druid with snared enemies was dangerous due to hardware issues back then and generally only done when you could survive a round of combat or two with the entire pack of enemies you were kiting.(generally low blues)

This. Although people are whining and bitching that it's inaccurate, this is my recollection as well. The majority of people who tried multi-kiting would get hit very often because of dial-up latency. All the people I knew back then said it was too dangerous to attempt. Yes, there were people who worked in IT and had T1 connections and what not, but the majority did not.
